MSBI Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Midland States Bancorp Inc.'s outlook is bolstered by anticipated improvements in credit costs, with expectations for a steady decline throughout 2026 and 2027, attributed to a reduction in non-performing loans and a strategic transaction enhancing credit quality visibility. The company's recent decision to increase its common quarterly dividend by 3% signifies confidence in its financial health, further supported by a significant increase in net interest margin which expanded by 23 basis points to 3.79%. Additionally, the strength of its common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital positions, projected to improve by approximately 55-60 basis points, underlines the firm's robust financial foundation and commitment to sustainable growth.
Bears say
Midland States Bancorp Inc. experienced a 3% quarter-over-quarter decrease in loans held for investment in the third quarter, primarily driven by intentional reductions in equipment financing and higher payoffs in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans. Total deposits also fell by 6%, heavily influenced by a 59% decline in brokered deposits, contributing to a projected decrease in the loan-to-deposit ratio to 74% by the fourth quarter of 2026. Despite a reduction in non-performing loans, the overall trend of declining loans and deposits, combined with expected decreases in operating expenses, raises concerns over the company's future revenue generation capabilities.
